We do too. It makes the best coffee we have ever tasted - in our opinion.

Using ver. II of the Keurig. Not the best cup of coffee, but convenient using the refillable K-cup.

Stainless steel Revere Ware drip coffee maker-----$3.00 at flea market in the early 70's.
Will last long after I'm gone. If the power goes out I can still have my coffee.
As an added plus, no paper or plastic taste.
For one serving only, I'll use my French Carafe.

If the power goes out I will pull out the camp stove and granite coffee pot and make it cowboy style. I do keep beans to grind when I run out of K-cups and the stores are not open.

Never started drinking coffee
So I don't have to fork out money for the coffee or the coffee maker.
The money I save can be spent on scotch.

Drinking coffee is a choice. Of course you can still drive after having a few coffees! if caught the money put out is far less. lol
PS My wife doesn't like coffee either. But she doesn't replace it with scotch either!

We sure agree on "San Francisco Bay" brand coffee. It is excellent.

There are lots of great coffees and brewers -- but the best is in the palate of the consumer.
I have tried some really good coffees (e.g., Blue Mountain) that I did not like as well as my favorites. I drink coffee all day, all year. I like dark roasts, some more than others. My first choice is grinding the beans and a Krups drip brewer. No cream. No sugar. But for convenience, I often use the Keurig.
Most comments seem to be coming from "pure" coffee drinkers. However, I think a lot of today's consumers drink a variety of "flavored" coffees which which may be a contributing factor to Keurig's popularity.

I have a Bella and a Proctor Silex which use K cups. I keep one for K cups and one for ground coffee so I don't have to switch baskets. Together they cost considerably less than a Keurig and they have outlasted 7 or 8 Keurigs that have failed for family members. I think the secret is that you just put water measured in whatever size cup you want to use and they don't store water. We just bought a Bella for our vacation home after the Keurig failed when someone left water in it between visits.
